Your First Clinic Visit

Your initial visit with a specialist from the Stramski Children’s Developmental Center will begin with a family conference of your child’s current health, medical history and family history because some behavioral and developmental conditions can be hereditary. A clinic visit generally lasts up to an hour and your child’s specialist will need to know of any past operations or major illnesses that your child has had.

Come Prepared

• Bring a list of any current medications
• Inform the health care team of drug allergies
• Write a list of questions that you may have for the doctor
• Bring your insurance or referral information
• Have a knowledge of family history to share with your child’s doctor

The doctor will then perform a complete physical examination. There may be a need to order certain tests or suggest a procedure to improve your child’s condition. Questions during this time are always encouraged, because it is very important that you fully understand your child’s situation and are comfortable with the treatment plan prescribed.
